We are in need of participants for our DNA project. Currently in the US, we could use tests from descendants of Thomas Dryden and Lydia Ward of Holden, MA as well as John and Hannah Dryden of Somerset, MD. Also very much needed are samples from the UK, especially England and Scotland. Angus, Midlothian and Borders in Scotland. Northumberland, Cumberland, Durham, Yorkshire and Cornwall in England. We have a few participants from South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, but could use more samples to help with the research. If you can't afford to do a test let us know and we may be able to help or find a sponsor for you. Contact Ron Dryden at dryden@roadrunner.com or Keith Beiver the project administrator.
